Is There A Cure For Globus Hystericus?

Is there a cure for globus hystericus? I m currently taking Zoloft of Valium for it, but the Valium only gets rid of it temporarily. The Zoloft hasn t done anything yet, but I ve only been on it for two weeks. I m currently trying supplements such as magnesium oxide and B6, but they haven t cured me either.

Hello

globus hystericus means a feeling of lump in the throat , even though there is no significant swelling or mass in the throat and is generally due to stress/anxiety or psychological disorders.If your diagnosis is correct , then i would strongly recommend that you meet a psychiatrist , who can evaluate you completely and guide you further. You will not need any supplements or medications for it.
Take care!
